HIGHLAND HEIGHTS, Ky. -- Coming off its best game, No. 20 Cincinnati wanted to keep the momentum going against an overmatched opponent. The Bearcats did it for a half.
Cane Broome matched his season high with 17 points Tuesday night as Cincinnati rolled to a 77-49 victory over winless Arkansas-Pine Bluff, extending the nation's longest home-court winning streak. They were coming off a 77-63 win at UCLA, their best showing yet.
They'd hoped for more in their encore.
"Last night all I talked to our guys about is we can't take two steps back," associate head coach Larry Davis said.
